ABOUT THE GAME
Behind the story of chasing the princess,
Investigate the discomfort in the world.
``World of Zoink'' is a satirical JRPG puzzle that begins with an introduction where you chase a demon who has kidnapped a princess. You walk through a top-down world, investigating conversations and locations, and proceeding based on clues that aren't typical of a JRPG.
OPEN THE PAK
Open your inventory with Enter,
Review the actions you can try.
When you open the inventory with Enter, "PAK" will be displayed on the right side of the screen, and Jack's HP and money will be displayed on the bottom left. On this screen, you can check your HP 20 and your gold 20.

Use arrow keys to walk, X to explore the world
Use the arrow keys to move, and press X to interfere with conversations and targets. Enter corresponds to inventory, Z corresponds to cancel, and GBA input is assigned to the browser version key.
The discomfort of JRPG itself can be a clue
The official explanation advises you to closely observe the scene where you feel something is wrong. Experiment with available actions and find ways to progress through events that don't seem like a typical JRPG.
You can try it without worrying about failure or depletion of essential resources.
The official page clearly states that you will not fail or use up the resources needed to progress. The structure focuses on trying out the actions you have come up with.
